Description: 
 Race condition in the __find_get_block_slow function in the ISO9660
 filesystem in Linux 2.6.18 and possibly other versions allows local
 users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) by mounting a
 crafted ISO9660 filesystem containing malformed data structures.
Ubuntu-Description: 
 A race condition was found in the grow_buffers() function. By mounting a
 specially crafted ISO9660 or NTFS file system, a local attacker could
 exploit this to trigger an infinite loop in the kernel, rendering the
 machine unusable.
